No beginning of semester task I hate more than changing all the lab due dates/times on canvas. No way to optimize, incredibly tedious, just sit and click and try not to confuse prelab times with lab times (inevitable)

Paper (and press release) week! 🧪🔭

I'm so excited to share this awesome research result from @emmalieb.bsky.social and me, in a collaboration between @uofdenver.bsky.social and @noirlabastro.bsky.social. We made a JWST time lapse to watch the dust shells around WR140 expand!
Astronomers using #NASAWebb identified two stars that generate carbon-rich dust in our Milky Way. When the stars in Wolf-Rayet 140 swing by one another on their elongated orbits, their winds collide and produce dust that expands outward: webbtelescope.pub/42bqgOP #AAS245 🔭 🧪
